Not kicking an easy FG, Dietrich penalty, dropped passes, over theowing wrs, block punted etc etc can't play this bad and expect to win next week. Panthers had no pass rush whatsoever. We need to be way better.

Lucky to come out of this game with a win!

The most glaring stat from today’s game was penalties.

Rams 9/83

One of the strengths of the team is low penalties. That has to be cleaned up to have any chance in Seattle or Philly. Also cant have punts being blocked. Can’t have your coach not taking points. Can’t have your QB not be willing to sacrifice his body for a 1st down.

This was the same Rams team that showed up vs the Falcons. I’d argue worse because you could blame Humphries for that game mostly. But the defense was awful even getting Lake back

Has anyone seen a weaker corner strength wise than Forbes? I’m referring to the play where he attempted to tackle the running back along the sidelines and was carried for another 5 yards!

Forbes play was epic - Rams assembled this DB group after assessing them as NFL caliber players capable of performing- they are awful and I doubt we can go forward beyond the next game with them. Cannot hide them/ replace them or scheme your way around their poor play.

I said it many times. The only way we can win in the playoffs is winning a shootout. This defense is not holding anyone under 30-32. We need to score 35 plus to win. So the offense needs to be at their top and today, they were not. We were lucky to get this win today

Lake and Adams first week back @ a hostile road playoff game, they will both be better next week and we get OL back and others hopefully.
